So, yeah, every winner has been in the top two (or not in the race at all). Although some late surgers (Edwards, Jesse Jackson, etc.) haven't performed well in New Hampshire...although they've never been able to come very close to taking the nomination.
But if Rudy and McCain do both run (very unlikely), and they place 1 and 2 in New Hampshire (more likely they'd split that segment of the vote enough so that one of the others takes 2nd place)...well, we'll likely see the rule broken in 2008.
